Legislative Alert -Ask your Senator to Support S.2738 the Toxic Exposure Research Act of 2014.

Senator Richard Blumenthal, (CT) has introduced S.2738, the Toxic Exposure Research of 2014 formerly S.1602, the Toxic Exposure Research amd Military Family Support Act of 2013.  VVA strongly supports this bill, which reflects positively on one of our foremost legislative goals. Not only would it help achieve a measure of justice for the innocent victims of the use of toxic substances in times of war, but it offers unlimited possibilities for scientific research into the effects of these toxic chemicals.

This comprehensive legislation will construct a common mechanism and procedures that will encompass all past and future toxic wounds, as needed.

VVA urges you to go to our Legislative Action Center site at http://capwiz.com/vva/home/ and Take Action NOW by entering your zip code and sending the prepared letter to your U.S. Senator, asking them to please join their colleagues Senators Moran, KS and Begich, AK in support of S.2738, the Toxic Exposure Research of 2014.
